Himself (aka RunsWithCelery) has sent me the *full* draft. I'm excited. Soon, I hope very soon, we'll be sending the manuscript to Baen.

We have a tentative publication slot of March 2016 for THE ROAD TO HELL.

Now, don't be greedy. Wait patiently.

Once they turn in the manuscript, then we start rattling the bowl (computer?) for snippets.

Is it turned in yet? :D

Obviously the co-author knows better than I about when RTH will be published, but HHNF hasn't appeared on Baen's publishing schedule clear through January, 2016. I don't imagine that they'd release it in paperback a mere month before publishing its sequel. (Although I wouldn't complain, mind you!)

Any clarification, especially since RFC noted last week that he was two months late in editing RTH and working 14 hour days on it, and hadn't finished yet?

Baen can clearly jam a book through publication in as little as 4 months if they have to, as RFC explained. In this case, with the re-issue of the two earlier books in the series, they won't be rushed, since they can probably assign a publication date safely at this point. But from what I can see, publication seems more likely to slip to July or later based on HHNF being published later than January.

Please tell me I have no clue and that RTH will indeed appear in March 2016! ;)

As you like it - you have no clue and RTH will appear in March 2016 :lol:

Ok, seriously, I believe that will be the case, because it happens that the 2nd volume of the Honorverse-series he writes with Timothy Zahn and Tom Pope (A call to arms) will hit the shelves 1 month after the release of the paperback-ed of the 1st volume (A call to duty).

So imho it is at least reasonable to assume that Baen will do the same thing with HHNF in paperback and RTH in hardback.

Just seen that my prediction has come true - HHNF will be published in February 2016 in Paperback, and RTH will be out in March 2016. I know, it was already known via Amazon or other booksellers, but now it is really official, because it appears at Baen's Publishing Schedule page, too.
